"I wear the cheese. It does not wear me." Most fans of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" will remember these words. Not because they're important, but rather because the Cheese Man (David Wells) has invited debate for decades. Creator Joss Whedon was once known for his careful planning, with many of the major decisions of "Buffy" famously being plotted years in advance. There are clues seeded in one season for major events that wouldn't take place until the next one or even later, so when it comes to dream sequences like the ones featured throughout the season 4 finale "Restless," fans could endlessly dissect every syllable.
After delivering the incredible one-two punch of "Becoming" and "Graduation Day" in seasons 2 and 3, respectively, "Restless" was an odd choice to wrap up the show's fourth season. There was no epic battle, no Big Bad to defeat, and no stakes of any kind really. That was all over and done with.
